WiMAX Networks:
A list of networks that are available for connections. The radio discovers
these networks over the air during the scanning process. While connected, this list shows the
networks found prior to connecting and will not be updated.
l
Name
: The name of the network access provider (NAP) that provides network connectivity.
l
Type
: The relationship to the subscribed network service provider. The possible
relationship types are as follows:
o
Home
: The network service provider operates the network.
o
Partner
: A partner of the network service provider operates this network.
o
Roaming
: The network provides roaming access for the network service provider.
o
Unknown
: The network may not allow connections for the network service provider.
l
NAP-ID
: The identifier of the network access provider.
l
RSSI
: Received signal strength indicator. A measure of the signal level of the network.
l
CINR
: Carrier to interference and noise ratio. A measure of the signal quality of the
network.
l
Refresh
: Update the list of available networks. Use this to see latest results of the
scanning process.
l
Scan
: Perform a wide-area scan for additional networks. Use scan to find unused networks
on channels in the subscriptions list. The current network will be disconnected.
The scan takes a few minutes to complete. During this time, you can update the list of
networks by clicking
Refresh
and you can restart a connection by clicking

Connect WAN 4G and ConnectPort Sprint/CLEAR 4G Configuration
, available on the
XBee Network Settings
A Digi Digi ConnectPort X gateway provides a gateway between an IP network and a network of
various wireless devices containing XBee RF modules. Typically, these XBee devices are small sensors
and controllers.
The XBee Configuration settings (
Configuration
>
XBee Network
) displays a view of XBee network
devices, including the ConnectPort X gateway and any nodes that have been discovered by the XBee
module in the ConnectPort X gateway.
In the
Node Type
column, the descriptors for the nodes can vary by the firmware type running in the
nodes. For example, the following image shows an XBee network running XBee ZB firmware. The
ConnectPort X4 gateway serves as the
coordinator
. There is one other node in the network, an XBee
Digital I/O Adapter. In this network, the adapter is a
router
. You can also display nodes as
end
devices,
and gateways can also serve as routers.
